Dear Healing Crystal Enthusiast:

Clear Quartz Clustersby Crystal CAT¬†

An all time favorite crystal of mine, Clear Quartz has the good fortune of being named a "Stone of Power"Ě and the "Master Healer"Ě of the mineral kingdom. ¬†While many minerals have static properties, Quartz Crystals can be programmed for virtually any purpose!¬†¬† Clear Quartz works with all of the chakras, and are found all over the globe, in many different types of formations. ¬†

All Quartz have the quality of piezoelectricity (meaning it can transform one type of energy into another). ¬†Since more and more scientists are discovering that everything consists of energy, the ramifications of this are being confirmed by science. ¬†A metaphysical use of quartz is where you can transmute negative energy into positive energy. ¬†

Another reason that I am so in love with Quartz is the sacred geometry of it's molecular makeup. ¬†Quartz molecules are hexagonal in shape and this is why almost all quartz points form with 6 distinct sides in a hexagonal shape.¬† With the key characteristics being amplification, memory, and programmability, Quartz Crystals have many uses in your home and elsewhere.¬† Clear Quartz Clusters are a "family"Ě of Clear Quartz Points, clustered together, either in a matrix or just stuck together.¬†

Quartz Clusters are a popular metaphysical energy tool as they have a unique power that I work with on a fairly regular basis. ¬†Large or small, accessing the energies from these clusters can be a benefit for you, those around you, and your environment. ¬†There are many different types of Clear Quartz Cluster formations, and at least as many uses. ¬†Today, I will list my own experiences for you, with the types I have used the most.

Of course, you should always cleanse any crystal that is a member of the Quartz family, and Clear Quartz Clusters are no exception.¬† My preferred methods for cleansing Clear Quartz Crystal are smudging, running water, and/or sunlight. ¬†

Before any programming is done, Clear Quartz Clusters already have a tendency to emit protecting, cleansing, calming, high vibe energy in many directions at once, which is one of the reasons I love these beautiful clusters so much!¬† I have quite a number of various Clear Quartz Clusters in my home, and too many to list here, so here is a sample of what I have and how I have used them:

I have meditated with each of my clusters at one time or another. ¬†Sometimes, I will simply meditate while staring at a Quartz Cluster that I hold in my hand, just to see what comes up from the depths of my subconscious mind, or to see what gifts the superconscious may hold for me that day. ¬†At other times, I might program the cluster before meditation, for a specific purpose, such as connecting with my higher self, or to receive a solution to some problem I am dealing with at the time. ¬†

Two ways that I use to meditate with my clusters are:

1) I hold the cluster in my hand and sit with my eyes closed, becoming as quiet in my mind as possible, and2) I either hold the cluster in my hand, raised up to eye level, or sit at a table with the cluster raised up, and I gaze into the Crystals and try to enter the cluster with my mind's eye. ¬†

This second example can get you lost for hours depending on the size and detail of the cluster. ¬†Sometimes, ideas will come to me as I meditate, while others, the ideas won't come to me until later on that day or the next. ¬†Either way, I always end up with some type of benefit resulting from my meditations with the clusters.

I have several medium-sized clusters that have an average dimension in inches of 3″Tx3″Wx3″D. ¬† These clusters are mostly cloudy, but I have a couple that are very clear, but a bit smaller. ¬†I use these Clusters for sending out high, protective and loving vibes into the room. ¬†After cleansing, I program them to emit their loving, soothing vibes, for the purpose of helping any people who enter the environment, as well as myself. ¬†I've found that Clear Quartz Clusters work very well in this capacity, allowing arguments to become seldom and cooperation to flourish.

I use my smallest Quartz Clusters for a boost when needed by keeping one in my pocket, but also as a comfort. ¬†Certain small clusters, of just two or three main crystals, emit these sweet vibrations of pure love when you hold them. ¬†Sometimes, I will apply a small cluster like this to a particular area that I feel needs a little healing. ¬†

I had an incredible experience that I will share with you.¬† A few months ago, I was very ill with the flu, to the point where I could barely breathe, and I had a very sharp pain in my chest, on my left lung. ¬†It felt like there was actually a hole in my lung. ¬†I didn't know what to do as it was the middle of the night and I couldn't sleep with this pain and lack of air. ¬†So I took out one of my smaller Quartz Clusters that had already been pre-cleared, and sat with it, focusing my intention of healing into the crystal. ¬†Once I felt the program was complete, I placed the crystal onto the part of my chest where I felt the pain, and I was able to eventually fall asleep.¬† When I woke up the next morning, the pain was gone and I was able to breathe easier.

Finally, another great way to use Clear Quartz Crystal Clusters is as a grid around the home, for protection and good fortune, among other things. ¬†For this purpose, I program my clusters to sit in their strategic places around the perimeter of my home; ¬† In at least the four outermost corners, and sometimes in various places in between. ¬†I place them inside the house though, because I lost some Fluorite stones which I had put around the outside of my house once. ¬†

A specific situation I can cite for you is when I was going through a period of time, during which it seemed that I was living in a stream of very bad luck.¬† Remembering an episode of Charmed, where they used Clear Quartz Crystal Clusters as a barrier for negative energy, I cleared and then began sending my intention of cleansing and protection into each of my clusters. ¬†This took quite some time, but it turned out to be worth the time and effort!¬† While I didn't win the lottery or anything that blatant, I did sense a shift of the energies in my home to a more positive state. ¬†I also noticed a feeling that I was protected against outside influences. ¬†

Of course, there is no scientific way to know if these things indeed worked for me, or if it was just a coincidence, but I personally believe that they did because I noticed the change. ¬†Sometimes it was subtle, while other times it was a quick and intense difference.¬† This is my humble opinion that where intention flows, energy goes, and I believe my Clear Quartz Crystal Clusters magnified and focused my intentions in these situations which I have illustrated for you in this article. ¬†

Thank you for reading this spotlight today. ¬†I send you many blessings on your own personal crystal journey!
